Tech Ideas for the Future
As a database, KurateDAO needs a platform that is fast, low cost, and eco-friendly. This meshes well with the Avalanche ecosystem. KurateDAO and Avalanche can work together on the following ideas: Database Subnet: As KurateDAO scales, our computational requirements will continue to increase. We would propose moving KurateDAO to an Avalanche subnet. This database subnet could then be used by many applications in the Avalanche ecosystem.KurateDAO validators: Avalanche uses validators and Snowba...

A Web2 and Web3 Example
Example of KurateDAO being used for News Curation in Web2KurateDAO works like this: A curator creates a database on the blockchain with a certain objective, such as, “News that is not clickbait.” The crowd then submits content to the database in line with the objective. To keep suggestions credible, the crowd stakes crypto on each submitted article. If people in the crowd guess correctly that the curator will accept the data in the database, they receive more crypto. If they guess incorrectly...
